The fascinating appliance combines a blender with a small heating plate which can saute vegetables and cook soup in 30 minutes. The “stir” function will work better if your vegetable pieces are smaller. It is a bit difficult to “stir” one pound of uncooked, dry carrots with one blade. You might even need to use a silicone spatula a time or two before your liquids are added.

The blender has a plastic base with a glass container and even comes with a brush for cleaning (we’ve always hated cleaning our blender!). Last night, I made a cream of broccoli soup with the soupmaker. I heated up the heat plate for 10 minutes on the medium setting, then I added some oil and half an onion and raised the heat to the high setting.

I was curious whwther this would be a valid alternative for somebody not beeing able to shell out nearly 1K $. For me the built in scales are essential as well as the kneading function as I am mostly using the tm for making bread. All the rest comes as a more than welcome supplement – as you wrote sauces and stuff like curds are super easy woth the tm. I guess also the temperature cuisinart pots and pans set fine tuning from 37C to 120C comes very handy (e.g. When melting chocolate for brownies). Your machine will STOP when the time has come and you’re cooking without temperature settings. If you’re doing something hot, it will stop heating so you won’t overcook your food but the blades will go on softly so that the bottom won’t be in permanent touch with direct heat.
– The Cuisinart Soup Maker is a taller blender-like appliance with a higher center of gravity. This is in stark contrast to the robust design of the Thermomix with its triangulated ‘cradle’ making for superb ergonomics with repeated use. This may seem like a small point to consider, but really the details add up. Overall ease of use is a HUGE factor in why I reach for Thermomix several times each day, more often than any other tool, gadget or appliance in the kitchen.
If the appliance does not perform satisfactorily due to defects in materials or manufacture, it will be repaired or replaced through Conair UK After Sales Service. So far, I don’t really have many complaints about this product. The only things I think I should point out are the size and a note about the timer.
In particular, I love creamy soups but have rarely made them. I just found the whole process a little intimidating and hated cleaning up the pots and pans and hand blender afterward. With four different power settings, the possibilities of producing delicious dishes are endless! We made butternut squash and chilli soup on the chunky soup setting and it was ready in 25 minutes.
